Full Steam Ahead at Canton Drop Forge
Canton Drop Forge continues to make progress on our new 50,000-pound steam hammer. The concrete for the foundation has been poured and is now fully cured. We received the anvil, and the hammer columns and all ancillary equipment will be arriving soon.
Once it’s installed, the 50,000-pound hammer will be the largest at Canton Drop Forge.
Currently the company’s largest hammer — out of 11 operating in the factory — is 35,000 pounds. This new hammer will provide additional capacity and allows us to make larger parts, up to 5,000 pounds.
Looking Ahead
We are looking forward to starting the installation process this month and expect to have everything complete in January 2023.
Our target is to start forging parts in the mid-Q1 2023 timeframe.

All available Kropp tooling has been inventoried and can be ordered directly from Canton Drop Forge.
